oil for engine break-in that will be used
during normal operation.
Aftermarket Oil Additive Usage
PACCAR does not recommend the use of
aftermarket oil additives. Today's high-
quality engine lubricating oils are very
sophisticated. Most oils already contain
precise amounts of additives blended into
the lubricating oil to meet stringent
performance requirements.
These oils meet performance
characteristics that conform to the lubricant
industry standards and are suf
ficient
protection when used according to the
recommendations. Aftermarket lubricating
oil additives are not necessary to enhance
engine oil performance and may in some
cases reduce the oil's capability to protect
the engine.
